The Subtle Sins We All Ignore
Manage episode 480683095 series 171137
Ever walked out of a situation and thought, “That didn’t feel right”?
In this raw, unscripted episode, Jerrad Lopes shares a deeply vulnerable moment — a story that didn’t involve sin in the traditional sense, but came dangerously close. From a return line at Home Depot to the emotional weight of a product endorsement, Jerrad invites listeners into the middle circle: the subtle behaviors that don’t look like sin, but lead our hearts away from truth, integrity, and God.
🎧 In this episode:
What “middle circle behavior” means and how it can unravel your soul
The difference between numbing out vs. self-care
A powerful framework used in recovery communities to build emotional awareness
How small compromises can quietly erode godly character
Jerrad’s honest confession to his wife — and why radical honesty matters
Why Oreo binges, Zillow scrolling, or standing while eating may matter more than you think
The prayer for men who want transformation but feel stuck
Whether you’re a husband, a father, or a man seeking healing, this episode offers a language for the soul and a challenge to step out of isolation.
